5.2 Lighting the burners using a safety device
The burner controlled by each knob is shown next to the knob (the example to
the left corresponds to the front left burner).
The appliance is equipped with electronic ignition. Simply press the knob and
simultaneously turn it anticlockwise to the minimum flame symbol, until it lights.
Hold down the knob for about 2 seconds to keep the flame lit and to activate the
safety device. The burner may go out when the knob is released. If this
happens, repeat the procedure, holding the knob down for longer.
(On some models only)
Double-crown burners comprise an
auxiliary and a rapid burner, controlled
by two different knobs which permit to
use both burners at the same time or to
select one or the other as required.
If the burners should go out accidentally, after about 20 seconds a safety device
will be tripped, cutting off the gas supply, even if the gas tap is open. In this
case, turn the knob to the OFF position and wait at least 60 seconds before
trying to light the burner again.
5.3 Practical tips for using the burners
For better
consumption, pans with flat, even bases and with lids should
be used, and their size should be in proportion to the burner
(see "5.2 Lighting the burners using a safety device").
During cooking, in order to avoid burns or damage to the
counter top and to the glass lid (when present), all pans or
griddles must be positioned within the cooking hob perimeter
and a minimum distance of 3-4 cm must be maintained from
the knobs.
